Cameras along the Atlanta BeltLine reveal that wild animals enjoy the path almost as much as humans do.

Over the course of a year, six cameras have produced 28,333 files showing 57 different species amidst the BeltLine’s greenery, from flying squirrels and foxes to colorful migratory birds.

What started off as just a small idea by Trees Atlanta turned into a bigger project, according to Grace Manning, BeltLine Arboretum supervisor for Trees Atlanta.
